Trust International and Lanyon sign interface agreement between Voyager CRS and Lanyon Content Control Center
Frankfurt, Germany/Orlando, US May 23, 2007, Trust International, a global provider of reservation and distribution solutions for the hospitality industry, today announced an agreement with Lanyon, Inc., provider of content management tools, for an interface between Trust International´s Voyager CRS and Lanyon´s consortia contracting tool Lanyon Content Control Center. Trust International is providing an interface to speed and simplify the rate loading process by seamlessly forwarding the agencies´ confirmed rates from the Lanyon RFP control center into the Voyager CRS.
Hotels using the Lanyon RFP tool to help them with the consortia contracting will now be able to upload the rates for a specific consortia and negotiated rates directly to the Voyager CRS once it is confirmed by the consortia in Lanyon. The rates will then be available at the CRS, as well as being forwarded for immediate availability in distribution systems and channels be it GDS or Internet channel.
'Trust International is recognized as one of the leading providers of reservation services. With Lanyon's hotel RFP product being the most widely used RFP tool in the hospitality industry it made absolute sense for us to develop a link between the Lanyon and Trust systems, 'stated Todd E. Tyler, President & CEO of Lanyon, Inc. 'Lanyon and Trust have many mutual customers and this new interface will enable them to manage their RFPs and rates quickly and efficiently, effectively speeding up the time between confirming a bid and having the new rates bookable for the client.'
'We were delighted to be able to introduce this new interface between Lanyon Content Control Center and the Voyager CRS. It will help the hotelier during the upcoming rate loading period and will save them valuable time which normally is needed to make a new contracted rate available for the customer,' said Richard Wiegmann, COO of Trust International. 'Voyager CRS already has a strong expertise in seamlessly interfacing with all major Property Management Systems or Revenue Management Systems to help hoteliers simplify the data maintenance process and increase their productivity. The Lanyon interface is another great service to prove this.'
